Description:
------------
Right now there is no way to set application-defined "Reason-Phrase" (as defined in rfc2616) along with Status-Code in a Status-Line of http response for fastcgi sapi. This affects php-4.4.7 too (fastcgi module based on same code).

Fastcgi specs says:
http://www.fastcgi.com/devkit/doc/fcgi-spec.html
6.1 Role Protocols
[skipped]
Role protocols do not support the non-parsed header feature of CGI. FastCGI 
applications set response status using the Status and Location CGI headers.

As I understand, the only way to specify Reason-Phrase is to pass it via Status: header. This header itself will not reach a client, because it is only valid within fastcgi protocol.


Reproduce code:
---------------
<? header("HTTP/1.0 404 Not Found"); ?>

Expected result:
----------------
web server respond with "HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found" status line.

Actual result:
--------------
web server respond with "HTTP/1.1 404" status line.
